Nottingham Forest v Derby County Matchday Thread

Let’s keep flogging this dead horse. I think I saw the tail move towards the end of the first half versus Huddersfield. Then the opposition moved a midfielder back 10 yards and we died again. But tomorrow maybe if we flog it even harder, the horse may stand up ...again. Patience please ... it may yet live!

                     Marshall

Byrne     Davies    Clarke    Buchanan

              Shinnie     Knight

Waghorn      Lawrence      Jozwiak

                        Kazim

 

5 at the back makes us a more solid side but isn’t helpful if we’re going to attack better so I’d go back to the 4-2-3-1. Also neither Wisdom (still unfit) and MTW (settling) look ready yet, also Evans injured.

let the 3 behind the striker interchange and cause some confusion. Let Kazim use his presence as a no.9 from the off.

No Bird for me as we need some more experience in a game like this, I also think once Bielik is back for he will struggle to break into the side.

lets go get 3 points, show people what we can do and what (in the past) we have done. Lawrence winner would be great

Sibley's back available? Excellent news!

We might finally get to see a midfield 3 of Knight, Bird and Sibley... that could be a combination for years to come if we get them playing well together for the 1st team. They regularly ripped up U23/18 teams.

Not a chance.

too inexperienced.

Bird for me is poor currently and doesn’t deserve at starting spot.

sibley has been injured and has more of an affect coming on as a sub as he’s not marked out of the game.

knight has to start but not with those 2. Has to be Shinnie and Bielik when he’s back

massive this. Will go one of two ways 

Lose and I sure Phil could be on his way

win and with players back can start our season. 

we must shoot. shoot on bloody sight boys. 

we must battle a good kick or two let them no your there. 

just hope its not decided by a silly handball that a defender can't get out the way of. 

COME ON LADS!

Indeed

10x 50 yard pea rollers straight at the keeper = 10 shots on target.

It doesn't matter if they're awful shots with 0.002% chance of going in, it'll improve our all important shots per match stat which in the eyes of many on here seems to be the absolute measure of attacking intent.

We'd better not actually try to beat the keeper though, we'd risk shooting off target, which as we all know doesn't count as attacking intent.

My line up

 

 

39FDA7F5-F658-44E2-A4D9-CD4F323B4E38.jpeg

Nice team, but may not be an option tonight if Waghorn & Kazim aren't fit enough yet. Waghorn is definitely better out wide.

There's also, of course, the worry of Davies & Clarke being completely done for pace on the breakaway, or fewer passing options for Davies leading to him giving the ball away more readily. Also Buchanan has impressed as a LWB, but looked a lot more shaky as a straight up LB - if we go with 4 at the back I can see Forsyth coming back in (although he hasn't exactly looked solid)
